If Sterling were a Republican you know the leftist spoke holes would be labeling every Republican a racist.

One can say that's axiomatic.

She probably already has posed nude under yet another alias, but more likely in Hustler, or other skanky one. Playboy at least has some class, or at least it used to.

Realized I was speaking too soon... I haven't opened a page of Playboy for a few decades... Maybe they are no better than the worse out there...

Unfortunately, most of the ones who are out of touch with most Americans are the super rich and our own politicians. ;)
 
Re: Clippers Owner Donald Sterling Tells Girlfriend: Don't bring Black People to My G

This whole thing is so stupid.

There's nothing new here folks. Sterling has been doing this for 30 years on multiple occasions, and yet that didn't stop black players from signing there, or black coaches or executives for playing there. Doc Rivers knew all about Sterling's history, as did Chris Paul and the others. There is literally nothing noteworthy about this compared to multiple other racist rants this guy has gone on over the past three decades.

But make no mistake, Sterling isn't one iota different than Sharpton or Jackson or dozens others, and they go unchecked and uncalled.

Sterling has been an absolute embarrassment to the league on a variety of fronts for a long, long time. It's just the media and most folks who care nothing about basketball suddenly found a new cause to yank out that trusty race/victim card.

If you mean he has been having a series of mistresses for 30 years I might agree.

Oh I don't think you should try and make this about folks who don't care about basketball, fact is that folks who don't care much about basketball have this brought to the fore and are naturally repelled by it isn't playing any card... more like reaching for a barf bag... ;)

Rumors about his racism I can see, BUT until the recording it was a he said- he said thing. There appears to be one judgement against him for preferring Korean tenants in a building he owns but I doubt many folks knew of that gem. That was 2003, hardly three decades ago.

Elgin Baylor's claims in 2011 were part of a wrongful termination lawsuit Mr. Baylor lost. No recording, no witness, no workie my right wing friend. Not 30 years ago.

Now however there is no benefit of the doubt. Now the rumors have weight. Now there is a clear and indefensible utterance.

Odd how he didn't want blacks in his apt building but did want one in his bed. :confused:

Rich folks seem to get the benefit where less well off folks don't... affluenza anyone???

No, he's uttered racist comments for years, not to mention multiple cases of sexual discrimination, scandals, etc.

And not only does he like black women in his bed, his real name is Tokowitz. Go figure that out.

This guy is a disgusting mess. Always has been.

Wasn't that a settlement where it was cheap[er for him to settle than pay lawyers for a long drawn out suit?

In cases like these, he wold have never recovered lawyer fees and time if he won.

Yep. It never even made it to court.

The courts ruled unanimous not to take the cases. He claimed he wasn't being paid enough, but look at how much better the Clippers did after he left. Looks like he felt like pay should be for attendance rather than by performance.

I disagree. Did you listen to the whole tape, where she is race baiting him?

Is there any actual evidence of this, or is it another case where it is cheaper to settle?

Or...

Could it be that rich people are often the targets of the judicial gambling game, where plaintiffs come up with stories to be awarded settlements.

It doesn't pay to make up stories against people who don't have money to settle with, right?

Being affluent is a curse as well you know.

Yes.

He's Jewish and changed his name because he knows about racism first hand. If you listen with an unbiased ear, it is clear he speaks of perception, but doesn't speak as a racist.

Did you listen to the whole thing, or just the snippets the media plays?

Exactly, which makes me wonder why any owner would ever make a comment like this. The man has shot himself in the foot.

I remember Richard Pryor used to make fun of himself after his severe burn accident from freebasing cocaine saying "this is Gods way of saying you have too much damn money". Sterling is a perfect example of that wisdom. Nobody in his circle dare say a disparaging word to him about anything let alone his outdated views on race. He simply sounds like massa on the white porch of Tara has just moved west without changing the attitude about his employees.

Well, you were talking about him and said, "What does MJ have to do with it?"

I miss the connect between his 'real' name and keeping a black mistress... :confused:

I can't find any mention of multiple cases of anything... but to be a bit more clear, we are talking about racism not sexism... you originally said racist for 30 years to attempt to claim EVERYONE should know what this guy has said/done...

I wouldn't object to you providing a link or place to start looking for 30 years worth of racist comments... :2wave:

Yes they knew, and they all apparently forgot to tell the NCAAP how racist he was, given that the NAACP was about to give him an achievement award for his good works for the black community.

I'm sure that was his money talking to them. A point I was trying to make earlier in this thread but which did nothing but caused a few Liberals' heads to explode. They have been happily collecting paychecks from this guy for years, knowing what the rest of us didn't know, which was that he has issues with black people (WTF does he own an NBA team again?), but it wasn't until the Liberals, drooling over another RACIST to scream about, make this guy public enemy #2 (Bundy being #1). Now all of a sudden they are all shocked and are distancing themselves from him.:roll:

Do you have anything to say about the subject, or did you just want to see your name in lights too?
